Which of the following is correct about the neck angle for Insignia? - Answers Insignia offers a 132
degree neck angle with a +5 mm direct lateral high offset option
Which of the following stems is cemented? - Answers Exeter
Where should the femoral neck resection be in relation to the planned broach seating height? -
Answers 1-2 mm above the planned broach seating height
True or false: Accolade II is only offered in a high offset option - Answers false
What number sequence correctly represents the corresponding neck lengths for Accolade II? -
Answers 27 30 35 37 40
Where do standards tapered wedge stem designs originate from? - Answers cemented Mueller
straight stems of the 1970s
The accolade II stem is what design? - Answers morphometric wedge
What is the surface coating of the Accolade II ? - Answers Commercially Pure Titanium Plasma Spray
with PureFix HA
True or false: Insignia utilized SOMA to establish greater offset coverage compared to competitive
stems in order to accommodate a wider range or patient anatomy - Answers true
3 Key SOMA designed features of Accolade II are: unique size specific medial curvature, enhanced
proximal distal proportions, optimized stem length with distal lateral relief - Answers true
What material is the Accolade II stem made from? - Answers Ti-6AI-4V substrate material
What are the features of Insignias SOMA designed tricks stage broaches? - Answers cutting teeth in
M/L, compaction teeth in the A/P, and .5 mm oversized aggressive distal cutting teeth
true or false: SOMA was utilized to match the Accolade II femoral components to the sizes and shapes
of a broad range of patient bone morphology - Answers true
What type of stem is the Insignia stem? - Answers Collared, metaphyseal filling stem
What are the potential benefits of an Accolade II stem? - Answers may fit broad range of bone sizes
and shapes in todays patient population, its optimized fit and length may promote initial implant
stability, may be suitable for multiple surgical approaches including the direct anterior approach (all of
the above)
Accolade II has two offset options; the standard offset _____ degree neck angle and the high offset
_______ degree neck angle - Answers 132 and 127
True or false: Insignia features SOMA designed size specific collars that are proportionate to the
implant body size to help minimize the likelihood of posts impingement caused by implant overhang -
Answers true
True or false: insignia incorporates the SOMA designed geometries of the clinically successful
Accolade II and Secure-Fit. Specifically, accolade II's M/L geometry which includes the size specific
medial curvature and secure-fit trapezoidal - Answers true
What is the taper for the Accolade stem? - Answers v-40 taper
Which of the following is correct about the Insignia Stem - Answers the insignia stem features a low
profile shoulder, short stem length, and distal relief designed to provide ease of lateralization and
insertion in muscle sparing approaches
Insignias optimized stem length not only accommodates muscle sparing approaches but
demonstrated enabled stability compared to a clinically successful fit and fill stem with bench top
testing
What are the reasons for having a tri stage broach for the Insignia stem - Answers to remove
cancellous bone in the ML to capitalize on the clinically successful Accolade II M'L geometry, preserve
cancellous bone in the AP while enhancing initial rotational stability and encourage metaphyseal fit
What makes the accolade II design unique from other tapered wedge systems? - Answers features a
size specific medial curvature
true or false: the accolade II femoral stems intended for cement and cement less use - Answers false
The Accolade II is based on what type of stem philosophy? - Answers tapered wedge
